Just a general warning to anyone planning a trip up the I-55 corridor through Missouri; PlugShare will show you a lot of Chargepoint DCFC stations sponsored by the utility, Ameren. They advertise up to 120kw but every single one I stopped at had a notice that it was derated to 90KW, would actually only pull 45kw. If someone else was charging at the station next to mine, it dropped to 26kw.

This was true of the locations in Sikeston, Cape Girardeau, and Festus. There is a free DCFC in Perryville at the Holiday Inn from Francis Power, but I think it only hits around 50kw.
